These are lightweight and great for water storage, especially when used for hiking.

The Sawyer system works great for filtering water on camping trips, especially if you want to go lightweight and not carry one of the heavier systems.I wish these bags would fill when submerged, but I've gotten around that by just bringing an extra water bottle designated as "dirty." My biggest complaint is that the bags only last about 10 trips before they wear out and start leaking. For this reason I always carry an extra new bag. Even with the extra bottle and extra bag, I'm still saving many ounces over a different system, but I think they could come up with a better bag design without adding a lot of weight.

The Sawyer bags don't last very long and these are a good replacement. They have different design than those pictured, much lighter blues with white but I like it more than the black design.

Sawyer makes great products and these were a fair value too.

Auch ohne Filter eine sehr gute Alternative zu schwereren Gefäßen

I have a mixed opinion of these bags. They are pretty good but have one big downside.PROS*Small & Light*Work well with my Sawyer mini filter*So far all I have used have been robust and not sprung any leaksCONS*Can't fill them easily. I could only manage to get about 16oz into the 32oz bag when filling from a lake.The pros speak for themselves. I'll elaborate on the problem. The bag collapses on itself as soon as it gets in the water. If you could put it under a waterfall, I expect you could get the full 32oz in it. I have to pull it through the lake 3 or 4 times to get enough water in it to be useful which I measured to be 16oz. So it takes two bags worth to fill a standard Nalgene bottle. It works, just takes more "fills" to fill your water bottle. I have an alternative filter system that uses a more traditional water bladder that gravity feeds through a filter. I think it is easier/less hassle to use and will probably be using that one more often than the Sawyer squeeze system.

Ces poches ne sont pas semblables à la poche fourni avec le filtre. Le matériau est plus souple, sans doute plus fin.En trois semaines d'utilisation, ces trois poches ont craqué au même endroit : les soudures du haut de la poche.Heureusement, il me reste la poche d'origine, qui résiste pour l'instant !

These pouches are just the right size to get a good bit of water for filtering. I recently switched from a much heavier Katadyn filter to a Sawyer Mini for backpacking due to the weight savings and affordability of these filters. After drinking several gallons of water filtered from these pouches over several days in the wilderness, I am completely satisfied with the function, taste, durability and especially the VALUE of the Sawyer pouches and filter. I'm fully SOLD on Sawyer products and will be trusting them for all my adventuring and emergency needs from now on. You can't beat the weight savings, functionality, and price of these filters and of course these bags.

Addressed issues from other earlier reviews: I read reviews where the bags were folded in the center. My order was packaged rolled appropriately. I also read a review stating that they weren't shipped with caps. My order came with caps.My use is for a "walk home" pack for the car. I've kept a smaller sawyer pouch in the car for 2 years and it doesn't seem to have been degraded by the CA heat. The same goes for the mini filter I have with it. They are very light and take up very little space when collapsed.My idea of a scenario where this system would be handy: Earthquake during the commute home turns the highway into a parking lot. Likely destroyed roadway/bridges ahead and behind you means your car will be stuck there a few weeks. You can walk home over the next two days. You find a bridge on the way home that is out and the river isn't terribly wide or swift. You dump out any water you already had in the bags as you come up to the river. This is no loss because it was water that hadn't been filtered yet and you're by a river anyway. You now blow the bags up with air, put the caps back on and put them back in your pack. You swim across the river with a little extra margin of safety and then refill the bags with water on the other side.

Material resistente, bien acabado y la rosca es compatible con las de la marca Platypus.Utilizo estas bolsas como complemento del filtro Sawyer Mini, en ellas almaceno el agua filtrada mientras espero a que haga efecto una pastilla potabilizadora que siempre uso como medida extra de seguridad. Como cada pastilla potabilizadora es para un litro de agua esta bolsa es ideal al tener la misma capacidad, por lo que no tengo que preocuparme de medir: una pastilla, una bolsa.Una ventaja de este tipo de recipientes es que una vez vacíos su volumen es mínimo, casi como el de una hoja de papel de no ser por la boca de llenado y el tapón, otra es el peso tan solo 30 gr. frente a los 180 gr. de mi botella de agua de plástico rígido. 180 gr. equivalen a 6 bolsas Sawyer, es decir 6 litros de agua, si esa misma cantidad la tuviera que almacenar en 6 botellas estaríamos hablando de 1,08 kg de peso solo en recipientes. Por no hablar del volumen que ocuparían.Solo utilizo las bolsas para el agua, no las he probado con otros líquidos, como zumos, bebidas isotónicas o bebidas con gas, aunque no lo recomiendo, pues es difícil de limpiar el interior, las bebidas con gas pueden producir fugas de liquido por la presión y con los zumos cabe la posibilidad que la acidez de algunos afecte al material.Otros usos:Como bolsa de agua caliente en las acampadas en ambientes fríos, siempre con cuidado de no introducir agua excesivamente caliente y asegurándose de que el tapón cierra herméticamente y no tiene posibilidades de apertura accidental.

I love my Sawyer Squeeze system and these bags just made it better. The old bags did wear out just as the company advertises. The new blue bags seem to be made much better so they will survive use much longer. I watered an entire Boy Scout Troop through an Elkorn High Adventure Base trek in the Rockies last year with this system and the old grey bags. We had 2 other MSR pump filters on the hike but one of them failed in its first use and the other one we discovered was missing parts and never functioned at all! (We had all the parts at the shakedown but they got misplaced getting into the pack) So very simply, unlike the pump water filter systems, the Sawyer Squeeze works every time! It is also 1/4 the weight of the other pumps and the bags can be used to store water for the hike too. The filter will fit any standard water bottle top so when a bag does wear out, I can use other items instead of a bag. I carry 500ml water battles you can buy at any store because they weigh less than Nalgenes and canteens and fit my filter. The old bags were good but these new bags are much nicer. For the weight of one pump filter alone I can carry 4 Sawyer filters, back flush syringe, and 8 of the 64 oz bags capable of holding 16 liters of water! I don't carry cast iron dutch ovens or pump filters when I hike!
